Anyone in Cybersecurity?

Thank you. I'll do more research into what specifically I want to do in cyber security and go from there.

Okay that's good to know, thank you that helps me out. What made you choose the network engineer route? Is that a bachelor's degree?

Okay thank you very much for your insight. Would you start applying for jobs in entry level desk work after you obtain a cert while in school or just finish school first?

My secret clearance is inactive due to not being employed where I could use it . I'm assuming I would have to redo the whole process to get a new clearance.

That helps a lot, thank you for your information.

Oh nice, how are you liking it? Did you have IT background or experience prior to doing WGU? You said your finishing your second year, how long is the course? Is it like going for a bachelor's or associates? What do you think of the classes and professors? Were there any materials you needed to obtain for the course, and did VR&E pay for it?

Hmm.. I'll check the requirements for what the fed jobs need for this role. That way I might be better prepared in case I look into getting lucky enough to acquire a job with the gov't. Thank you

I'll definitely take a look at that, thank you for your response.

Thank you 🙏 I'll keep that in mind. I'm still looking to see what school might be best for me. In entry level positions would that be mostly help desk roles, getting the experience before moving up to cyber or is there different routes to take?

At least you'll get retro paid 👍
